Statement on the appointment of the new Prime Minister in Madagascar

Text

The political agreement to form a new consensus government is an important step towards putting an end to the period of pre-electoral crisis in Madagascar.

All the political actors are now called upon to cooperate with the new Prime Minister, Christian Ntsay, with a view to forming a new inclusive government with the main task of holding credible, transparent and inclusive elections, in a calm atmosphere and in accordance with the constitutional framework.

In close coordination with its national and international partners, and in particular in support of the initiatives of the High Representative of the African Union, the European Union reaffirms its readiness to support this endeavour, including by considering the deployment of an election observation mission.
